1. Introduction to Database Development Using Borland Data Providers 2128 Martin Rudy

2. Agenda –BDP Architecture Overview –BDP Components –Connection to data –Using the Data Explorer –Updating data / Transactions –Master / Detail –Dynamic Queries –Migrating to BDP –Data resolving

3. Additional BDP Sessions Mon 2186 Building Database Applications with ADO.NET 3188 ASP.NET Web Forms and Databases Tue 2106 The ADO.NET DataSet In-depth Wed 4100 Integrating into the Borland Data Provider 3188 ASP.NET Web Forms and Databases 3116 Top 10 Techniques for Microsoft.NET DB Dev

5. BDP Architecture Overview –Implementation for ADO.NET Data Provider interfaces –Includes set of component designers –Live data –Adds following extensions: metadata retrival schema creation

6. Supported Databases –ORACLE 9.1.2, 8.1.5 –Microsoft SQL Server 2000 –MSDE –Access –InterBase 7.x –Sybase 12.5

7. BDP Components

8. DataSet

9. New in Diamondback –BdpCopyTable Copy table data and PK –Data Resolving DataHub DataSync –Data Remoting RemoteConnection RemoteServer

10. Connecting to data –Place a BdpConnection component –Set connection parameters –Place a BdpDataAdapter and define SQL statements –Create a dataset –Activate BdpDataAdapter –Place a data aware control and connection to dataset

11. Code Demo Connecting to data

12. Using the Data Explorer –Tool to browse databases –Establish named connections –Display table schemas, stored procs, views –Modify data – update and rollback option –Alter, drop, copy, paste table –SQL Window –Data migration –Available outside IDE

13. Code Demo Using the Data Explorer

14. Data updating basics –Two BdpDataAdapter methods: Update AutoUpdate –BdpCommandBuilder Developer handled updates

15. Code Demo Data updating basics

16. Column Properties –Properties for each column –Like TField properties –Use Tables property on DataSet –Displays Table Collections Editor –Select Columns property –Display Columns Collections Editor

17. Code Demo Column Properties

18. Transactions –BdpTransaction Commit Rollback –Create instance of BdpTransaction –BeginTransaction from connection

19. Code Demo Transactions

20. Master / Detail –Need two BdpDataAdapter components –Create SQL for master and detail –Populate same dataset –Activate both adapters –Modify dataset Relations property Use Relations Collection Editor Define Parent and Child tables –Detail DataMember property use relationship name

21. Code Demo Master / Detail

22. Dynamic Queries –Specify SQL in BdpDataAdapter –Use ? for parameter place holder –Modify BdpDataDataAdaper SelectCommand property –Use Parameters property to display BdpParameter CollectionEditor to define parameters –Assign parameter value as follows: BdpSelectCommand1.Parameters['cntry'].Value

23. Code Demo Dynamic Queries

24. Migrating to BDP Components ConnectionBdpConnection DataSetProvider (DSP)BdpDataAdapter BdpDataHub/BdpDataSync ClientDataSet (CDS)DataSet TransDesc, IBTransactionBdpTransaction

27. Migration to BDP Properties DSP.UpdateModeBdpUpdateMode (All, Key, Changed) DataSet.StateDataSet.Tables Rows RowState EOF/BOFNone – need to use DataRow TField propertiesDataSet ColumnCollection

28. Code Demo Migrating to BDP

29. Data Resolving –DataHub Client side cache for DataSet From any IDataProvider –DataSync holds a collection of DataProviders BDP and non-BDP Optimal SQL generation for BDP Uses CommandBuilder for non BDP providers –Similar to TDataSetProvider Error dataset not returned Integrated into dataset
